About Megger®
For over 100 years, Megger has been the premier provider of electric test
equipment and measuring instruments for electrical power applications. The company was founded
in 1889 in England as Evershed & Vignoles and over the years has been
known by several names, most recently, AVO International. In 2002, the company
decided to change its name to Megger, which is what many people have
called it all along. Today, Megger enjoys an
outstanding reputation in the areas of insulation testing, low resistance and
ground resistance testing, and a wide variety of electrical contractor
maintenance tools such as multimeters, portable appliance testers and
clamp-on meters.

For many years, the James G. Biddle Company
in Pennsylvania, was the U.S. importer of Megger products and they also manufactured
equipment under their own name. A number of years ago, Megger became the sole owner of
James G. Biddle, and has retained the use of the Biddle trademark
for many of the Biddle products still available today.
Manufacturing insulation testers is where Megger started,
and the Megger brand name is so well known today that maintenance
professionals often incorrectly use it as a verb when they refer to doing
an insulation test on wiring. The Megger trademark was
first registered in May 1903 by Evershed and Vignoles and it, along with "Biddle" are jealously guarded
by the company today.

Although best known for the world famous range of
insulation testers, Megger provides a full service solution to meet your
electrical test and measurement needs. Megger products provide testing
solutions in the most critical maintenance areas including cable fault
locating, earth/ground testing, low resistance measuring
apparatus, and power quality testing. With such a diverse product offering,
Megger and MeterCenter can be a single source for electrical test and
measuring instruments for our customers.
